Now I'm way down the line.

Yes, you're gone, but you're still on my mind.

Blow it, blow.

So my heart can let the phone explode.

Hello and welcome to episode 1,120 of Effectively Wild, a very private conversation between myself.

The Lindbergh that is recorded for public consumption is a hangar, baseball, podcast, brought to you by our innumerable Patreon supporters.

They are matched in number only by their loyalty, the two of us.

Yep, and for that I wish to express my tremendous appreciation to you.

And do I? If you're out there on the fence, then you should probably be a Patreon's supporter because we just, I don't know, we love them more.

You know, you're not supposed to pick your favorite kids, but when your favorite kids give you money that just kind of swing the odds in their favor a little bit.

I guess we're going to find out pretty soon whether we're going to redo this beginning or not, but in any case, this is Friday morning.

And we have seen the playoffs begin. We will watch very shortly the playoffs resume before we get to that.

I just want to mention something that I was not aware of and that will become inevitably the subject of a post in November or December or January or February.

So the other day, as mentioned on this podcast, at least five, maybe six times, are to Bradley hit a triple.

Are to Bradley hit a triple. It was according to win expectancy, the biggest event of the Diamondbacks Rockies and a Wildcard playoff.

It moved the win expectancy 16 percentage points. That's a lot. Good triple for Archie Bradley, who it turns out has been one of the worst hitters in baseball, even among pitchers.

And he hit the triple off of Pat Nyshek, who has been one of the best pitchers against right-handed batters over the course of his major league career.

So improbable triple anyway, even without knowing those splits, you can, I think you already know, pitcher triples are rare.

So even if you did another splits, I think everyone would have an understanding that pitcher triples are rare for reasons that you can imagine.

Here's something I didn't know. Okay, so this season in the regular season, there were seven pitcher triples. Maybe you knew this bend. Maybe you didn't.

I'm just going to read from the bottom. Tied for second place, Jeremy Helixon, one triple, Patrick Corbin, one triple, Jake Arietta, one triple.

First place, Luis Pernomo, four triples. Did you know I did not know. Yeah, right. Who knew? Luis Pernomo, he, he pitches for the pogries by the way.
